Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of polymer materials technology, and particularly relates to a composite proton exchange membrane and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] To achieve safe, clean, and large-scale renewable energy storage systems, flow batteries (RFBs) have garnered significant attention in the fields of electrical and chemical energy due to their superior battery efficiency, rapid response, long cycle life, and unique modular design, enabling the storage and release of electrical energy. The proton exchange membrane (PEM), a key component of the vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) system, serves to isolate the positive and negative electrode electrolytes and provides the necessary proton transport channels. An excellent PEM should possess characteristics such as high proton conductivity, low vanadium ion permeability, excellent physicochemical stability, and low cost. Therefore, researching PEMs with superior comprehensive performance has become a hot topic in the current flow battery field.
[0003] Perfluorosulfonic acid resin is currently the only proton exchange membrane material that can be industrially applied. Its unique molecular structure gives it excellent mechanical and chemical stability, while its highly hygroscopic side chains provide excellent proton conductivity. DuPont's Nafion series membranes are currently the most widely used proton exchange membranes for flow batteries, exhibiting excellent proton conductivity. However, their excessively rapid ion permeation rate leads to cross-contamination of the positive and negative electrolytes, reducing battery efficiency and membrane lifespan, increasing battery operating costs, and severely limiting the effective use of sulfonic acid resin proton exchange membranes in flow batteries.
[0004] Chinese patent document CN117457953A discloses a perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry and a proton exchange membrane for flow batteries, as well as a method for preparing the same. The method for preparing the perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry includes the following steps: (1) dissolving and dispersing perfluorosulfonic acid resin in a mixed solvent to obtain a semi-finished perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry; (2) adding the semi-finished perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry to a high-pressure homogenizer for high-pressure homogenization to obtain the final perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry. By subjecting the semi-finished perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry to high-pressure homogenization, the perfluorosulfonic acid resin molecular chain segments in the obtained perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry are uniformly distributed and oriented, resulting in high uniformity, low viscosity, and good fluidity of the perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry. However, the high-pressure homogenizer is used to disperse the semi-finished perfluorosulfonic acid resin slurry. The high shear force brought by the high-pressure homogenizer will cause the molecular chains of the polymer resin to break, resulting in mechanical / shear degradation, reducing the molecular chain and affecting the film-forming performance of the product. Secondly, the high-pressure homogenizer will bring significant thermal effects. The high pressure and shear force are converted into heat, causing the solvent in the material to volatilize, affecting the solution system, and thus affecting the metal ion permeability performance of the proton exchange membrane.
[0005] The method of preparing composite proton exchange membranes by adding inorganic materials is an effective way to improve the ability of proton exchange membranes to block metal ion penetration. However, the dispersibility and solubility of inorganic materials limit the application of this method.
[0006] Therefore, providing a proton exchange membrane for flow batteries with low metal ion permeability and its preparation method has positive practical significance for improving electrolyte lifespan and battery cycle stability. Summary of the Invention

Furthermore, the improved hydrophobicity and vanadium blocking ability of fluorinated PBI result in a proton exchange membrane formed by blending fluorinated PBI with perfluorosulfonic acid resin exhibiting superior performance in blocking vanadium ion permeation.
